[edit] Darren Kane
He does exist but a contributing editor with a cliamed artcile read on Howard Stern plus a non-existant televison show adds up to non-notable. The original link to "All-Nighter" went to a bus company. A search of MTV shows nothing for "All-Nighter" or Darren Kane and the selling of the show has been in the article since the original edit in 2005.

- Delete for failing WP:BIO - lacks multiple non-trivial articles about him by third parties; no national awards, no evidence of lasting contribution to his field. Appears to be a resume, and WP is not a free webhost. I was at least able to verify his Howard Stern interview, but I got only 58 general Google hits for "darren kane"+"howard stern" which suggests there was little controversy among Stern's fans, particularly as there were only 19 distinct Ghits out of this lot. Speaking of which, somewhere under 900 Google hits for "darren kane" -racing -speedway, mostly xanga, myspace, and other self-entered websites and mirrors. Tychocat 10:01, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
